Mintz and Askew are both playing good today.

 

[*CatinIL*]

I haven't checked the numbers but it seems like the CATS are doing better from the FT line.

 

[jbne222]

Still not where he needs to be but this is the best half Boston has played all year. 12 points, 5 boards, and most importantly no turnovers. Need Clarke and Sarr to get it together and we'll be fine

 

[MbergCat]

I'm really proud of Mintz and Askew today. Playing hard and smarter. I still don't understand how Allen can't get any clock but others are allowed to play through awful spells.

 

[kyjeff1]

Boston is starting to heat up. If he can get going, they'll hit another gear.
I like the fight our guys are bringing today.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

I’m watching ata Lexington brewery , people barely clap when we make a play or hit a three . Just kinda dead , even though we are playing pretty decently

 

[ArtLaibsGhost_rivals]

Very impressed with Ware this half, also Askew seems to be playing with more confidence, looks MUCH better.

 

[ala_kat2]

We’re in pretty good shape considering that Sarr hasn’t contributed yet.

 

[Wildcatfan66]

Askew having his best game I think.. Doesn't seem afraid...

 

[megablue]

We are so much better defensively and SMARTER with Mintz and Askew together

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Cats +5 rebounding. +6 made free throws

 

[Baller Cal]

Cmon BJ make me eat crow!

Nothin like a good BJ.....

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

Calzone lol

 

[RunninRichie]

I love boston’s potential. I really do, if he can just get better on shot selection he will be a beast.

 

[Oneandnotdone38]

I haven't checked the numbers but it seems like the CATS are doing better from the FT line.

Ehh lol. Not really. They've missed quite a few. Probably shooting like 67%

 

[STL_Cat]

Nice half. Boston looks much more comfortable shooting mid range jumpers than from 20’ and out

 

[BassProCat]

We are far from perfect.. but its clear to see this team is getting better and better.

might look even better if the bigs weren’t in foul trouble

 

[numberonedad]

Jesus

 

[armchairpg]

There’s your zone

 

[kyjeff1]

Give up an and-one. Worse possible outcome there

 

[Crawfords Corner]

That dude took 4 steps after the gather lol

 

[warrior-cat]

Waiting for the second half to see if we can maintain?

 

[RunninRichie]

That dude took 4 steps after the gather lol

Their jerseys are powder blue. Refs didn’t see nothing.

 

[BassProCat]

Well how we feeling bout second half????

Im scared lol

 

[kyjeff1]

With foul trouble all half long, we take a 4 point lead to halftime. Gotta like it.

 

[CELTICAT]

I’ll take it!

 

[*CatinIL*]

OK! That looked like a MUCH better effort from the CATS. I like seeing the press being applied.

 

[Oneandnotdone38]

Sarr has to have a higher IQ. This guy has been there. He's in foul trouble every game. Been very unimpressed with him so far.

 

[Baller Cal]

Whoever crawls around in the mud and fights harder wins this one.

 

[ukwildcat2004]

No-one effing touched him.

 

[kybassfan]

WTF!! Damn zone at the end cost us 2. Happy now Zone Zombies?

Our best half so far.

 

[Will Bithers]

Give up an and-one. Worse possible outcome there

Technically a foul on a made three would be worse.

 

[LmdCat]

Boston is like nuclear energy. If you can harness him, he can be extremely productive, but if you lose control of him, he will kill you.

 

[TIE543]

7/10

Clarke gotta come out on fire in the second. Was god awful the first.

 

[kyjeff1]

There’s your zone

And it's why Cal hates it. Every time he uses a zone, the opponent gets three points immediately.

7-10

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

I like our chances if our main guys can stay out of foul trouble and stay on the court 2nd half.

 

[OldRed]

Very impressed with Ware this half, also Askew seems to be playing with more confidence, looks MUCH better.

I noticed that about Askew too. He has always looked like he is running helter-skelter out of control. Today, measured the guard, pump faked him up and drove by making him foul on the way to the basket. I'd have to say I am more than pleasantly surprised with the Cats so far.
